So do they keep the first second and thrid notes for all new prifixs or how dose it work I have a number 1,2,3,4,5 on a new $5s
The Bank of Canada retains the first, second, third
and last notes printed for any series or signature changeovers. Printing year changeovers are not necessarily kept in the same manner, as this form of changeover had never previously been a tangible change to the printed notes.
Notes such as AOB0000001 are released to circulation, as it is not a changeover. All 0000000 notes are retained and/or destroyed.
